Garden - 2 months

So all the plants are huge. I've caged up all the tomatoes, staked up the peppers and gave the cucumber a bamboo pole to climb on. All the tomatoes have a huge lot of green tomatoes on them. The peppers aren't growing as well as I had hoped. I've only gotten a few banana peppers but no bell peppers. Got a couple small cucumbers, squash and zuchinni. I'm afraid the squash and zuchinni are going to cover up the spinach. I'm not too concerned about it because it didn't taste that great anyway.

From the garden

It rained quite a bit yesterday and some of the pepper plants were knocked over. I got some sticks to prop them up. They all seem a bit top heavy and I'm wondering if I should do the same with them as I do with the tomatoes and put them in cages.

In other new...I now have a contract-to-hire position. Right now I'm doing Flex and will soon be doing a lot of other things. I'm pretty sure these guys are going to give me an offer when the contract is up.
